The 2012 D3baseball.com All-Region teams have been announced.

Players were nominated for these awards by the Sports Information Directors at the various schools and conferences, who were contacted multiple times as the season wound down to remind them to make their players eligible.

The 2012 season is the first season these have been awarded, and 713 players were nominted. The ballot was then made available to SIDs, who voted for a predetermined number of players in their region, as well as D3baseball.com staff and contributors.

For each of the eight regions, there is a regional player of the year (a batter), a pitcher of the year, a rookie of the year (must be a freshman) and a coach of the year.
